We don't seem to doing much of that anymore.Build a product, hope it provides value enough for a user to pay for it, earn a profit. You'd succeed by providing value. Now, we extract value.We enter the market with free, chase unrealistic scale, trap users and, maybe, exit. We pull value up the stack and leave just enough at the bottom.We co-opt and commercialize social interaction — who cares if it makes it healthier improves it? Do just enough to stay out of trouble.We destroy the institution and practice of journalism, get bored and leave wreckage. We disrupt traditional industries, increase the precariousness of employment, strip benefits and then raise prices — but hey, you've got a new app, right?We treat attention as though it's an inexhaustible input to be mined through (it's not). We do the same thing with everything, written, posted, produced and placed on the internet.We start out building valuable devices, move into services, capture users and step on developers.We spin up streaming media, drop prices, increase availability, wait for collections to whither and then safely hollow out libraries, squeeze creators and raise prices.I wish we were more focused on the ever increasing number of people harmed by all of this, the number of people who are checked out, getting squeezed or left behind by vague promises that never materialize and quickly forgotten.I wish we could get back to providing value to users. It's been a while.This is a full text feed, but not all content can be rendered perfeclty within the feed.

They can respond to prompts and generate vaguely intelligible text — provided the right inputs, the right human-generated inputs.Rather than engaging with content created by modeling human input, my request is this: model better behavior by avoiding it.AI generated music? Skip it.AI generated video? Don't watch it.AI generated text? Skip it — go read some lorum ipsum instead.AI generated art? Keep on scrolling.AI generated code? Don't review it.New AI feature in your favorite app? Look for something new.It's a tool, but it's an exploitative one. If you want your work valued, if you want your time valued (as you should!) then you shouldn't be engaging with tools that devalues the creative work of anyone.
